Ingredients

• 750 grams Potatoes
• 300 grams Green cabbage
• 1 medium Onion
• 50 grams Unsalted butter
• 100 grams Cheddar cheese (grated)
• 50 milliliters Whole milk
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Peel the potatoes and chop them into evenly sized chunks. Place them in a large pot, cover with water, and add a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil and cook for 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.

Step 2

While the potatoes are cooking, finely shred the cabbage and dice the onion.

Step 3

Heat half of the butter (25 grams) in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and shredded cabbage. Sauté for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened and slightly caramelized.

Step 4

When the potatoes are tender, drain them well and return them to the pot. Mash the potatoes with the remaining butter (25 grams) and milk until smooth and creamy.

Step 5

Preheat your oven to 200°C (390°F).

Step 6

Gently fold the sautéed cabbage and onion into the mashed potatoes. Season the mixture with salt and black pepper to taste.

Step 7

Spoon the potato mixture into a greased ovenproof dish and spread it out evenly.

Step 8

Sprinkle the grated cheddar cheese over the top, ensuring it covers the potato mixture completely.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and golden brown on top.

Step 10

Serve hot as a side dish or standalone meal. Enjoy your comforting and delicious Rumbledthumps!
